What a coincidence: some days ago I was thinking about which Super Sentai Mecha would be the next to star in the SRC line.

Personally, I think Daibouken is a little ugly: the colors don't make a nice match and there's a lot going on on him, but I think it will end up being a nice SRC (like the other Super Sentai SRCs). It looks dynamic, while keeping a somewhat "blocky" look. I like it.

I for one,got the model kit version of Daibouken which I'll be reviewing someday. I was joking about him not getting a SRC because the one I got which is a model kit of the DX version was ok because his articulation makes him look great but,Oh man. Did Bandai pull another Sentai mech outta their hats. I'm surprised. I'm gonna be gettin' this after I get Daizyujin and Might Gaine.

There are many robots that need the SRC treatment like Albegas,Laserion,Dragon Caesar,Jet Icarus,Jet Garuda,Might Gunner,GoldyMarg (even though he is but in his hammer mode),Dagarn X,J-Decker,Thunder Dagwon,L-gaim,Goryu from Might Gaine and 'breathes in' Draias from Fighbird. A man can dream. :)

From what I can tell based on the SRC sentai robots I do own, they don't want to go stylized, they just make allowences for superior articulation. Daiboken's arms may be extended to allow his elbows room but I put good odds that you can collapse them down to be more 'toy accurate' like with Shinkenoh.

They also seem to favor the designs as seen on screen with the suited actor, not the base DX toy, so that might be something else to consider.
